What Chefsearch doesn't like about The Foresters Arms:
I am amazed by the reviews I have read based on our encounter with Keith .. I understand the community own the pub but surely it is a business and not a toy for the locals?? We booked a Lunch here months ago and was looking forward to a hearty home made roast in a warm, friendly yorkshire pub but all we got was a rude, impolite barman whi was not helpful and clearly disorganised. In contranst we were served by a very... View all feedback. What HappyTimesLeeds likes about The Foresters Arms:
A lovely pub with great hosts. We were made welcome from the minute we walked through the door. Room was spotless with an extremely comfortable bed. The food was very good and plentiful with a great selection of beers and wines. Lesley and Keith were fantastic hosts and looked after us a 'proper ' landlord and landlady! We will definitely be returning. View all feedback.

Very popular place. Nice selection of beer. Went to sample the food, alas the kitchen was closed on this particular day.

The Foresters Arms pub has received mixed reviews, with some patrons praising the welcoming atmosphere, delicious food, and friendly staff while others were disappointed by encounters with rude bar staff, loud music, and lack of cleanliness. Despite inconsistencies, the majority of guests enjoyed their stay, citing exceptional hospitality from the owners Keith and Lesley, as well as the tasty meals served. With cozy accommodations, beautiful surroundings, and a charming ambiance, the Foresters Arms remains a hidden gem in Yorkshire. Whether you're a local or a tourist, this quaint pub promises a warm welcome and an enjoyable experience.
